Lord, your mask fell off

Chapter 1044 Digging Pit One After Another

Everyone had already left the table to enjoy the flowers, and was about to write poems and paintings, and the two little girls on Chu Qingyan's side also walked to the pool not far away, leaving only her and Huaxiuli.

At this moment, a man who looked like a father-in-law suddenly walked up to several tables and asked loudly, "Is the girl from the Chu family here? The princess wants you to come forward and answer."

This low-pitched shout caused the people nearby to look sideways and look in Chu Qingyan's direction with different expressions.

The father-in-law followed the line of sight of the crowd and quickly "found" her, walked to her table, bent down and said politely, "Miss Chu, the princess is welcome."

She had heard the loud yell just now, but she was a little unhappy. This person knew where she was sitting, and this move was clearly trying to attract others' attention.

She smiled and nodded quietly, "Thank you, father-in-law."

When she stood up, Huaxiu Li grabbed her sleeve and whispered, "I'll accompany you."

Chu Qingyan raised her eyes and saw that most people were approaching the main stage one after another. After weighing it in her heart, she nodded.

And Xiao Ran on the side smiled and said, "Don't worry, my aunt is very nice, I will go with you to see what she wants from you."

Chu Qingyan pulled her lips, her smile was shallow.

When walking, she deliberately slowed down and analyzed the situation.

She and Princess Huiyu have never met before, so it can be said that they are not acquaintances. When Da Bingkuai came to participate in the poetry meeting before, he did not mention this person much, which shows that his friendship with this princess is not deep.

From this point of view, either Princess Huiyu heard about her and wanted to meet her, or she listened to someone and wanted to embarrass her.

However, observing the princess' speech and behavior from the moment she entered the table, she was more inclined to the latter, and she became vigilant in her heart.

Those who watched the excitement didn't think it was a big deal, and everyone approached them one after another, some were watching the play, some were gloating, some were gossiping, their expressions were different, and there were all kinds of things.

Chu Qingyan followed and led the father-in-law to Princess Huiyu. She bent over and saluted, and there was nothing wrong with it.

When Chu Qingyan came, Princess Huiyu had already secretly looked at her. She had a high-level appearance and was the most outstanding woman I had seen in recent years.

"You are the beauty of the Chu family? I heard Mingzhu girl talking about you. You are good at dancing and chess. You are really good at both civil and martial arts. For so many years, I have never heard of such a powerful girl again." Hui Princess Yu said with a fake smile.

As soon as this high hat was buckled down, Chu Qingyan didn't feel that there was anything to be happy about, but felt that the pressure from the eyes of the people around her was even greater.

"Princess, you are absurd. When playing chess with Miss Mingzhu, Qingyan was just lucky and won by chance. Qingyan is far behind you. You are the real both civil and military."

The reason why Princess Huiyu's status in Xixuan is not low is mainly because she was praised by the Queen Mother back then. She is good at riding and shooting, talented, capable of writing and martial arts, so Emperor Xixuan also looked at her with admiration, and Chu Qingyan took advantage of the opportunity to praise her , be regarded as what one likes.

Xu heard this kind of talk too much, but Princess Huiyu just smiled, but she was indifferent.

"You haven't been in the capital these few years, are you still used to it when you come back?" Princess Huiyu asked.

"Thank you princess for your concern, Qingyan, everything is fine." She replied obediently.

"Auntie, don't worry, Qingyan is very adaptable, and my nephew will be there to help." Xiao Ran couldn't see the undercurrent between them, and interjected with a smile.

Xiao Ran came out to speak for Chu Qingyan, making Princess Huiyu look at him twice more.

At this time, Jing Mingzhu, who was on the side, stepped forward and hugged her aunt, and said coquettishly, "Auntie, didn't you ask Miss Chu to write a poem?"

Princess Huiyu seemed to have just remembered, she patted her forehead, and laughed at herself, "I'm really old, and my memory is also bad, so I forgot such an important thing."

As she said that, she turned her head and said to Chu Qingyan, "Qingyan, Miss Mingzhu drew a picture, which is very good, but it's a pity that something is missing. Miss Mingzhu said that you are not inferior to her in learning, so I would like to ask you to do it for me. How about a couple of lines of poetry?"

It turned out to be waiting for her here.

It's fake to mention a poem, but it's true to embarrass her!
Chu Qingyan raised her eyebrows slightly.

Seeing this, Hua Xiuli frowned in dissatisfaction, but on this occasion, she had no status to speak of in front of the nobles in the capital, and if she forced herself to stand out, she would only fall into injustice, so she could only hold back her hot temper.

At this time, the painting had already been unfolded in front of everyone, and it would be too late for Chu Qingyan to refuse, it would only appear that she was petty and had no real talent or learning.

Xiao Ran carefully looked at the painting, "Sure enough, there is something missing. It is indeed a good idea to mention poetry. Qingyan, try it, it doesn't matter if you say it is bad."

Facing Xiao Ran's encouragement, Chu Qingyan smiled, and then turned to Princess Huiyu, "Qingyan try it."

"Okay, to be the fiancée of the King of England, there must be something special, so I will give you half a cup of tea. If you speak well, I will reward you." Princess Huiyu said with a half-smile.

Time for half a cup of tea?

Everyone looked at each other.

Qi Lingyi and Yu Tianyue, who were still by the river just now, also rushed over. Hearing the time, she couldn't help being surprised. Even a talented scholar could not think of a line of poetry and write it in such a short period of time.She couldn't help but sweat for Chu Qingyan.

When Jing Mingzhu heard this, she felt that her aunt's trick was really clever, and couldn't help but want to see Chu Qingyan make a fool of herself.

The smile on Xiao Ran's face froze, and he couldn't help but said, "Auntie, is the time given too short?"

"Miss Chu didn't say a word, what's your opinion, boy? You're looking down on her too much!" Princess Huiyu chuckled lightly.

As soon as these words came out, even if Chu Qingyan had an opinion, she had no choice but to swallow them down.

Chu Qingyan learned that there was a knife hidden in Princess Huiyu's words, and she sighed in her heart that this woman from the palace lord's family is really good at speaking, she can lift you up to the sky in minutes, but the purpose is only to make you fall even harder awful.

Xiao Ran turned his head and glanced at Chu Qingyan, seeing that she did not look embarrassed, he felt relieved a little and stopped talking.

"Then let's start now!" Princess Huiyu waved her hand, and someone was ready to come out to time the time.

I only heard Chu Qingyan come out, with a decent smile on the corner of her mouth, "Don't bother Eunuch, Qingyan has already thought about it."

So fast?
Not only Princess Huiyu, but everyone present was taken aback.

But seeing Chu Qingyan's appearance, it didn't look like he was joking. Everyone suppressed their surprise and wanted to see how Chu Qingyan would respond.

But Princess Huiyu quickly laughed, "Miss Chu is indeed very smart, okay, come here, prepare pens, inks, papers and inkstones."

After hearing what her friend said, Huaxiuli secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but she didn't know that Princess Huiyu had another trick. In this way, no matter whether Qingyan's poems are good or not, if the handwriting is not good, she will fall into trouble again. Give people reasons to criticize.

Really cunning and cunning!She complained in her heart.

Chu Qingyan walked to the desk prepared for her, looked at the paintings on the table, raised her eyes to Jing Mingzhu, the corners of her mouth slightly curled up, a hint of sarcasm slipped across her eyes, then she lowered her head and picked up the pen.
